Whoever they are, at least we can go back and kill them before they trouble us.

Hey that would be a neat trick.  "I'm getting my ass handed to me in this game.  I'm going to reverse time to before I decided to play."

I thought the best Starcraft players typically aren't the ones that click the fastest, but the ones that make every click count? At least I've always been told that it doesn't matter how fast you click, but how fast you think.

Elite Korean players are all about the CPM.

It's actually a combo of CPM and effectiveness. I watched a video where the pros were giving tips on how to improve performance. One of the things they repeatedly stressed is "CPM is important, but so is making it count." I heard variations of that phrase throughout the video.

[Draco18s]

True.

Take two equally skilled players, and remove one's keyboard.  See how much APM doesn't matter.

[Draco18s]

Your.  Not.  Getting.  My.  Point.

I want to see someone play Achron well and who has a high APM.

[Neonivek]

You wanna know what I would have liked to see in Achron? A Temporal Bomb

or rather a Bomb that when it hits causes a temporal wave that strikes that moment in time going forward and back.

There are chronobombs, although I have yet to see them and don't know what they do.

the 'capture' mechanic of the nanites is simply brilliant

I still haven't quite figured out how to activate that yet.  Likely stems from a combination of "which unit does it?" "do I have the tech?" "FFFFFF, so many units to manage!" and "WOOOO!  FLEET BLOB *crush*"

How on earth do I tell if an order/future orders have been cancelled? So far hitting Z any amount of times seem to do nothing for me.

You only need to hit it twice.  There's no visual indication of orders having been issued/canceled.  If your units are still fighting with you, they've probably been infected with nanites, or whatever it is, that allows a player to issue orders to enemy units.

I've already seen them and they send all units in a certain radius 30 seconds into the future. It's not as overpowered as it sounds. Most of the time, you probably won't even notice which is a shame. The Grekim Reaph can fire them and it requires the upgrades "Weapons" and "Chronoporting".

If you have the bombs continuously hitting an area could they 'lock down' some units by continually porting them into the future?
